💛 This is Yogi Sanctuary Unplugged 💛

MADE - BOOKISH - PLAYED - WANDER
A growing collection of reasons to step away from the scroll and back into our own lives.

Come make something. Read something. Play something. Wander somewhere and learn something.
You might remember how good it feels to be a human rather than an audience.

PS. Look out for new WANDER events coming to our website / schedule soon. Walks, Mountain Meditations, Yoga in the Trees, Foraging, Acoustic music, Games on the beach and much more.

Every experienced yogi started as a beginner.
So we know how intimidating it can feel to walk into a room where you are sure everyone knows what they are doing except for you.

We want you to feel comfortable and welcome in our classes - no matter what you experience level is - and so we have created a wonderful four week program just for those who are beginners or are returning to yoga after a time away. The aim is to get you confident to attend a regular class.

Justine will teach you the fundamental postures, breathing techniques and movement principles that underpin a safe enjoyable yoga practice.
You’ll explore common poses, transitions, alignment and modifications for your unique body.
She will help you understand why you are doing something not just what to do, giving meaning to your practice.

Visit our website for more details or message us to arrange a call so we can answer any questions you might have.

✨Foundations: Yoga Flow
✨Starts 5th September and runs for 4 weeks.

I have often said I feel cheated. I’m a yoga teacher, I’m a sound healer of alchemy crystal bowls, I practice earthing and I believe fully in the vibrations of life and the unknown powers of the universe outside the realms of our comprehension ….. and yet, though I love them, I never feel anything from crystals. Even though I consider myself very unwoo-woo, wasn’t it a given in my line of work that I should be a little sensitive to their magical energy ?! But nope. Not a thing 🙁

And then recently that all changed. I was in @dawnshealinglight a little gem of a shop in Pyle Garden Centre and I picked up this flower agate palm stone. The energy I feel through my palm is insane. At once grounding and energising, I feel calm and balanced when I’m holding it. I can literally feel its vibrations on my skin.

This isn’t a particularly special example of this type of crystal - there are none of the gorgeous floral blossoms in the stone that can be seen in others - but that doesn’t stop its energy and connection.

This is the crystal I included in my recent retreat goody bags - a stone for new beginnings, for growth, transformation and strength. It reduces stress, worry and promotes courage, spontaneity and joy.

And something else I really love about this stone - we only discovered it in 2018 in Madagascar. Reminding us that we really don’t know all the wonders this planet we call home has to offer.

Why we are enabling a few wealthy greedy men to reduce our planets health and future is just beyond me!

Salamba Sirsasana II into Parsva Bakasana into Eka Pada Koundinyasna I into Eka Pada Koundinyasana II and finally into Savasana

Pretty bloody amazing !!

I am so proud of @leoniefitz - she has nailed this challenge she set herself, but only because over the last few weeks she has :

- exercised determination, remaining calm rather than frustrated, as she gained greater self awareness and control of her movements,

- worked with focus and breath control, managing stress and calming her nervous system

- been so patient - allowing herself time to break each section down before putting them all together - enjoying the little wins along the way

- shown persistence in the face of difficulties, she is consistently disciplined - this is the video of someone who is exhausted and just couldn’t muster enough to refilm to end effortlessly in chatarunga like her previous attempts

- and yet she also shows great self awareness, kindness and self acceptance. Our end goal is to remove the Parsva Bakasana and land straight into Eka Pada Koundinyasana I - but this will take time. And rightly so, she is proud of where she is and her control over mind and body that has got her to here. And now she rests. 🥰

Yoga is never just about the pose, the shape - it’s about understanding and managing what is going on in your inner world. 💛

Most times what yoga looks like…
isn’t what it feels like

You might see stretching…
I might feel my mind finally quieten

You might see balancing….
I might feel complete focus in the moment

You might see stillness…
I might feel like coming home to myself.

The real magic of yoga isn’t in the shapes we make…
it’s in how it makes us feel.

What would your “You see…I feel” be?
💛

There is something deeply grounding about working with clay. Hands shaping earth. Attention settling into the present moment. A quiet invitation to slow down, create and connect.

Join us for an afternoon of mindful making as part of Made - our monthly craft and art club, designed to bring people together through creativity, community and the simple wellbeing found in making something with your own hands.

In this special workshop you will create your own handcrafted ceremonial cacao mug / tumbler. Shaping and designing a piece that is entirely your own - something to hold future rituals, quiet mornings, comforting drinks and moments of pause.

This is not wheel throwing pottery. Instead you will work directly with the clay using approachable hand building techniques allowing creativity to guide the process as your mug slowly takes shape beneath your hands.

Whether simple and rustic, beautifully imperfect or carefully detailed, your finished mug / tumbler will become something both practical and meaningful. A unique, hand made object to connect you to moments of stillness, nourishment and ritual.

The afternoon will not be pressured, with time for tea and cake. No experience necessary, as Catriona of @caitrionaharveypottery will be our expert guide.

✨Yogi Sanctuary Studio, Heol y Bryn, Pentyrch CF15 9PY

I met Jess of @our_wild_souls_ about five years ago just before we both started on our yoga teacher journeys.

She stood out from the crowd as someone who walked her own path, had a strong affinity with all things nature - oh and she looked after rescue dogs - and that put her right at the top of my most admired humans list.

She lives her ethos, with a life lived close to nature, has built a loyal yoga community based on inclusivity and connection, and her yoga is slow, strong, creative and exquisitely inward focused. So it is with huge pride that I introduce her to you as your new Friday morning teacher here at Yogi Sanctuary.

She will be taking Evolve at 9.30am for those who love strong, creative and progressive flows, and Nourish at 11am for a softer, gentler approach where time is given for space, breath and mindfulness.

Jess and Laura are sharing the summer classes between them with Jess starting as your full time teacher from Friday 4th September.
Welcome Jess - it’s wonderful having you as part of our community.

🥰

Reposting as I got the wrong date on the image of my earlier post 🤦🏼‍♀️

With my foot surgery finally taking place on the 18th August I am taking the opportunity to close the studio to have the floor sanded back and revarnished.

All memberships will be frozen so that you are not out of pocket. This will mean you cannot book classes during this time either so do reach out if you want me to keep your membership rolling.

I am also going to embrace a digital detox with my socials growing quiet and all messages and emails not responded to during this time.

I am a tiny bit terrified of the operation and the lengthy healing, but I have to confess to being pretty excited to be stepping back from my screens and experiencing life through a more natural lens.

We open back up on 24th August with cover teachers taking my classes so the full schedule will be in place.
Thank you for your support 🥰

✨Tai Chi at Yogi Sanctuary. Coming soon - two classes a week.

It has been so wonderful to see how popular this class has become in such a short amount of time.
So popular in fact, we are putting this class into the schedule twice a week from the beginning of September with new times on a Tuesday and Thursday at 2.30pm.

We are building a lovely community here with many of the students new to Tai Chi and finding a common connection in their practice.
It has become apparent to them really quickly how beneficial this practice is to them.

There is abundant evidence that the continuous gentle movements of Tai Chi:
- trains ankle strength through slow weight shifting
- gently builds leg and knee strength and endurance helping prevent falls
- lubricates joints improving comfort and easing stiffness
- gently builds upper body strength
- creates a greater sense of confidence through improved balance and stability
- improves co-ordination and body awareness
- blocks racing thoughts and creates a calm and peaceful mind
- significantly improves cognitive functions enhancing memory and increasing grey matter in the brain
- balances internal energy (Qi) creating a calmness and ease in body and mind.

Choose a pay as you go price or buy a block of 4 classes (that can be taken over a 2 month period), with the cost dropping to just £7.50 per class.
Booking is via the website www.yogisanctuary.co.uk or download the Fit by Wix app and enter the code EMAYRP for our booking.

These classes are ideal for those both new to Tai Chi and more experienced.
Get in touch if you have any questions.

Strong movement starts with strong foundations.
If you’ve been thinking about out trying Pilates but don’t know where to start we have a four week course designed for you.

Swap a lunchtime once a week in September and together we will build the essential principles, helping you develop strength, stability, co-ordination and confidence before progressing into our regular Mat Pilates classes.

Laura will take you through the movements, help you understand technique and discover how Pilates can help you move better - not just in class but in your every day life.

Everyone starts somewhere 🌱
If you’ve always wanted to try Yoga but felt unsure where to begin, this course is for you.

Join Justine every Saturday in September and over four relaxed weeks you’ll learn the foundations of yoga at a pace that allows you to build confidence, ask questions and develop good habits from the very start.
By the end of the course, you’ll feel ready to step into our regular classes knowing what to expect and trusting your body to move with confidence.

If you’ve not met her yet, this is Justine @justinemcgartland 💛

I met this lovely lady a few years back now when I was teaching at another studio. I was captivated by her understanding of movement, her ability to be totally in the moment and her calm yet joyful energy.

She was a yoga teacher working on her own practice then and when she followed me to Yogi Sanctuary I couldn’t have been happier when she agreed to join the teaching team. She has been a popular teacher at the studio ever since and I am delighted to announce that she is taking over Saturday morning classes for us.

Justine trained in Bali and has been a full time yoga teacher ever since. Incredibly talented, she has a decade of yoga practice under her belt, a Rieki qualification and is currently undergoing a womb healing course. Justine loves nothing more than exploring movement combinations, creative transitions and combining a practice that can be sometimes challenging, sometimes nurturing. At home equally with an advanced pose as she is with slowing down and moving with care or simply sat quietly in meditation. She is the prefect person to look after you on Saturday mornings. 🥰

Book her classes via our website or app:

✨Mondays 11am Nourish
✨Saturday 9am Evolve
✨Saturday 10.30am Nourish

A fresh timetable. A few exciting changes. The same welcoming community. 💛

You’ll notice a couple of classes have found new homes, making room for a simpler schedule and the next chapter at Yogi Sanctuary.

We’re also delighted that @justinemcgartland will now be leading our Saturday morning classes. Many of you already know her from Mondays and covering classes and I know you’re going to love practising with her each week. I’ll introduce her properly over the next few days but I couldn’t wait to share our updated schedule with you.

Take a look through, see what catches your eye and perhaps let this coming season be the time you try something new.

I can’t wait to see you on the mat 💛

Sometimes you don’t realise how much you need to pause until you finally do.

Our 2027 retreat is already almost full, with just three twin room left (two of which are in private luxury cottages so ideal for a couple or friends).

A few beautiful additions await next year alongside the movement, stillness, nature and connection that made this years so special.

If you’d like to see what’s planned, send me a message with your email and I’ll happily send you the brochure. 💛

🍁Autumn has a quiet wisdom.

The wheel of the year turns. The equinox arrives as nature begins to slow. It brings with it an invitation to shift from growth to gratitude, from striving to grounding.

It reminds us that we don’t have to keep holding on. That there is strength is slowing down. Peace in putting down what has become heavy. Space to notice what truly matters and nourishes us.

Imagine an evening where you leave feeling lighter than you arrived. More grounded. More settled. More yourself.

A calmer mind
A less tense body
A fuller heart

This autumn join us for Gather & Ground. Part of our Sacred Seasons events - an evening to pause, reconnect and gently step into the changing season.

🍂Gather what nourishes. Ground where you are. Grow from there.

Sunday 27th September 7-9.30pm
Available to book via our website or app.

Meet Nicola 🥰

This lovely lady lives and breathes yoga. She has supported her own practice attending Yogi Sanctuary classes every week for many years now and to this day pops up in classes throughout the week, so I was delighted to bring her into the teaching team last year to hold our Surrender - Yin classes on Friday evenings. She has built up a loyal following of students who appreciate her calm soothing energy and her ability to adapt the class to match students individual needs.

And now she is taking on Nourish - our feel good gentle flow on Tuesdays at 5.30pm. I know she will bring the same reassuring and gentle energy to your Tuesday evening - the perfect antidote to a long day at work.

Nicola likes her classes to take their time, preparing and replenishing mind, body and nervous system, with balanced and considered flows before soothing longer holds and a delicious Savasana to send you home for a wonderful nights sleep.

You can book Nicolas classes on our app or website
✨Tuesday 5.30pm Nourish : feel good, gentle flow

- Tuesdays 7am Morning Ritual
- Wednesdays 5.30pm Align

Richard is currently in yoga teacher training with @cardiffyogaschool and has reached a point in the course where he can begin his teaching - an experienced teacher in other fields and a practitioner of yoga for many years, I am delighted he is going to be kick starting his teaching career here with us.

Good luck Rich x

Let’s get real. Instagram has turned Pilates into a showcase that is far removed from the practice. Focusing on aesthetics with perfectly toned bodies performing advanced movements.

But this is not the full story.

At its heart Pilates was never about looking a certain way. It was about moving well, building strength with control, improving posture, supporting your joints and creating a body that serves you for life.

Thats why we love Lauras Pilates. We are so proud to have her as our Pilates teacher.
You know you will get experienced, expert tuition from this joyful, beautiful, welcoming lady.

Sara is at the airport, travelling home from a work conference. Out of nowhere she’s pulled aside by agents from the Risk Assessment Administration. Their algorithm has determined that she’s an immediate threat to her husband, and must be kept under observation at a retention centre for twenty-one days.

The evidence? Data collected from her dreams.

When she arrives at the centre, she discovers that each deviation from their strict and ever-changing rules - loitering in the hallway, a ‘non-compliant hairstyle’ - results in her stay being extended. Desperate to return to her family, Sara must make a choice. Does she play by their rules, or risk taking matters into her own hands?

Long listed for the Womens Prize for Fiction this book explores the all to plausible future.

Are you tired or is your nervous system simply asking for a chance to recover?
Modern life keeps many of us switched on far longer than our bodies were designed for. Work. Family. Digital distractions. Caring for others. Endless notifications and to do lists. It’s no wonder so many people feel exhausted but also struggle to relax.

We all know what we need to do. Exercise more. Sleep better. Eat well. Rest … But how has the time to fit it all in and add a yoga class, yin class and the luxury of a sound bath too?

And thats why we created Yin Yang & Sound.
Over 90 minutes we gently move, deeply stretch and completely rest.
We begin with flowing yoga to warm up our bodies, release the tension of the day, we slow into restorative yin to encourage body and mind to soften before moving into a soothing sound bath.

This combination of movement and deep relaxation helps create conditions for youir body’s natural rest and recovery response. Many people leave feeling calmer, lighter, sleep more deeply and are better able to cope with what life throws at them in the week ahead.

Recover isn’t a luxury/ it’s one of the foundations of good health.

if you have been feeling overwhelmed, wired, running on empty or simply in need of a reset, we’d love to welcome you.

We are exploring prana in class this month. That vital life force that flows through our subtle energy body.
Think of it as energy flowing through a network of roads called nadis. When they become blocked your energy can’t flow freely.
Why does this matter? Ancient yogis believe this leads to illness, to dis-ease.

Yoga asana, meditation, pranayama when practiced with intention, with awareness, all work to keep the road network free flowing.

A good teacher knows this and it makes the difference between an exercise class that is enjoyable and a yoga class that creates lasting change - not just in the physical body but the inner world too.

Join our classes and see for yourself.

A different story every month. Tea and cake. Less screen time. A lot more connection.
Honestly what more do I need to say??

Join us this Sunday evening 6.45pm until 8.30pm
Book via the Events page on the website or app.

Lifting weights SIGNIFICANTLY reduces your risk of premature death and chronic disease by 13%. Combine resistance training with aerobic exercise and that can drop by an incredible 58%.

So my question to you is when are you going to start?

You are never to old to start and unlike flexibility, which can take time to improve, strength, bone density, heart health and all the other health markers improved by resistance and cardio training, can be increased by 25 to 100% within a few months.

Our Empower studio circuits classes are perfect for anyone wanting to complement their yoga practice without having to go to a gym. The circuit format allows you to work at your own pace and Laura and Fran are there to support you on your journey. Absolutely no experience is necessary, everything can be modified or scaled. There is no upper age limit and we have a lovely wide range of weights from 0.5 kilo to 15 kilo plus kettle bells, TRX, bands and stability ball. Plus of course your own bodies.

As we begun to explore Prana this month we begin to see its link to our energy. We often think we need more energy.

Yoga offers a different perspective.
It teaches that Prana, our subtle life force, is already within us.

The practice isn’t about creating more Prana.
It’s about gently clearing the roadblocks that prevent it from flowing freely.

Through mindful movement.
Through conscious breathing.
Through moments of stillness.
Yoga helps create space within the body and quiet within the mind, allowing us to reconnect with the life that has been there all along.

This week, instead of asking,
“How can I find more energy?”
perhaps ask,
“What roadblocks could I begin to let go of?”

Sometimes the most important thing we can do is simply pause.💛

We arrived at this incredible place carrying the pace of our everyday lives.

One breath. One practice. One gentle moment at a time. We moved. We rested. We created. We connected.

Between the laughter, the stillness and the sea, something quietly shifted.

We remembered that rhythm isn’t found by doing more, but by living more intentionally.

Rest became medicine….
Nature became our teacher….
Community became our strength.

Little rituals. Quiet mornings. Shared meals. Simple moments that mattered.

We didn’t leave with another thing to achieve. We left with a rhythm worth returning to.

Small moments of stillness. Small moments of care. The quiet knowing that what nourishes us is worth returning to.

Returning to our breath. Returning to our body. Returning to ourselves.

We can’t wait to return next year 💛 Would you like to join us?

Huge thank you’s to :
✨Alex and Emma of @cwmconnellcoastalcottages, Alex’s Anahata Yoga on the cliffs was so special - I feel very privileged to have shared the practice with him. Emmas touches turned the cottages into home, if a little better

I went home with a full heart 🥰

There is something quietly beautiful about sea glass. Once discarded and broken, years of waves, salt water and time soften sharp edges, transforming it into something shaped by nature into unexpected beauty.

Join us for a peaceful afternoon of creativity, connection and mindful making as part of Made - our monthly craft and art club designed to bring people together through creativity, community and the simple wellbeing found in making something with your own hands.

In this special workshop you will create your own framed sea glass artwork using a carefully curated collection of genuine Cornish sea glass, gathered from the beaches of Cornwall by @izzys_beach_art and shaped slowly by the ocean over many years.

Tumbled by tides, weathered by time and carried by currents, every piece tells its own story. You will be provided with a beautiful wooden deep-set glass-fronted frame, quality card to work upon, driftwood and a collection of coastal treasures including shells, pebbles and fragments of sea pottery to bring your design to life.

Ideas and inspiration will be available throughout the session, but this is also an invitation to let creativity lead the way - creating something entirely your own.

Creating with our hands can calm the nervous system, improve mindfulness and gently guide us into a state of presence.

Combined with creativity, community and a peaceful afternoon shared together, these moments have a quiet way of shifting energy and lifting spirits.

Spend a Sunday afternoon creating something beautiful and perhaps leave carrying a little of the sea’s wisdom home with you.

No experience is needed, only curiosity, openness and a willingness to try something new.

Tea, homemade cake and refreshments will be available throughout the afternoon to keep you nourished as you create.
